System sensitivity analysis acousto-optic spectrum analysis receiver
Abstract
This paper examines the system sensitivity of the acousto-optic spectrum analysis receiver for pulse-modulated CW signals with different pulse-widths. Considerations are given on such determining factors as the time-bandwidth product and the integration time of the photo-detector array. Measurements were taken and found to agree well with theory.
